The Armor Of God Meditation- time with Heavenly Mother

  We are told we need to put our armor on EVERY DAY I find that when I do  it this way I can feel it and I know where it  is weak. It only takes a few min but it is so powerful.

Here is how we do it at our house.

I talk this out for my kids. Now they have done it so much they can  do it on their own. 
Close your eyes and picture yourself in a white bright room. There is a table there with your armor on it. It is complete and made just for you. At the end of the table you see a woman. She is beautiful, and has a bright smile, love radiates from her. THIS IS YOUR HEAVENLY MOTHER. And as all mothers she wants you to be safe and protected and she is here to help you get dressed in your armor.
You can take a moment to greet her and tell her you love her.
Look at the table. It is spread with your armor. Heavenly Mother will tell you were to stand. Then she will walk to the table to help you get your armor on.
First she takes your helmet. She places it on your head, straps it under your chin, and lowers the visor so your face is also protected.
Next she takes your breast and back plate. You can hold the front as she puts on the back plate. It straps over the top of each shoulder. You will then have to raise each arm so she can make tight the straps on each side.  First on your right side , and then on your left.
She goes to the table and grabs a chainmail skirt. She wraps this around your waist and it ties in the back she then tucks it up and under the breast and back plate so there are no gaps.
Next come your leg grieves. She puts them in place and they strap at the upper thigh, above the knee, below the knee, and above the ankle for both legs.
She then goes to the table and gets your shoes. You can hold on to her as you step into each shoe. Once you are in she bends down and synches them for you and makes sure your ankles are covered.
Next hold out your arms and Heavenly Mother will put on your arm grieves. (Every ones armor is different and tailored to them. Your Arm grieves might strap to you similar to your leg grieves or they might be like great big gloves that go from your finger tip up to your shoulders.)
Feel the movement and comfort of your armor. Take time to twist and bend and feel safe and protected, flexible and strong.
Hold your arms out as Heavenly Mother brings you your sword and shield. Pay attention to which hand she puts them in. If your shield is in your dominate hand then today is going to be a day where you must protect and shield yourself and others. If your sword is in your strong hand then today is a day where you need to stand up for the things that are right and fight for Christ and his Gospel.
See if Heavenly Mother has any thing else for you that day that might help you or protect you.
Once you are all dressed give her a hug and tell her thank you. Tell her you love her and that you will try hard to be the kind of person she would want you to be. Listen to anything she has to say to you. And open your eyes.

This process can take any where from 1 min to 10 if you have a deep conversation or ask questions about your armor.
You can visualize this for anyone you are a steward over. Your armor is weakened or comes off completely when you sin, loose your temper, or are not true to the light you have. You can repent and ask God to re install it for you.
You can also muscle test to see if you are missing any pieces of your armor. Or to see if your sword is out... its not a good idea to keep it in the sheath it doesnt do you much good in there.
Everyone armor is different. Mine changes from time to time... I have a Sunday set of Armor that I LOVE. But it is only set out on the table on Sundays. On other people I have seen roman armor, mid evil armor, ninja/oriental armor, and even one little girl has armor that is pink and shinny with glitter all over it. It fits her personality.
This is so important that EACH of my kids have been told In their new years blessings for this year that they need to get up and meditate with mom and put on their armor every day.
Hope it helps.... ON a side note make sure that conversations with Heavenly Mother stay conversations. If you have anything that sound like a prayer make sure and rout it through Heavenly Father. We pray only to Him... but that doesnt mean we cant talk to our Heavenly Mother or have a relationship with her.

The armor of GOD

Here is a guest post

I share Yvonne Withers Russell post on  here with her permission. I will add my thoughts and ideas on a different post called "The Armor Of God Meditation- time with Heavenly Mother."   I just love her line of thought here. She is teaching in UT  so if you live in the area check her out. http://www.energyhealingconference.com/classes.html  and This liberatinglight.com is the website for her energy healing  practice.

On Sunday in Gospel Doctrine we were discussing putting on the Armor of God. I started to realize that each piece of the armor of God protects certain chakras AND that the type of spiritual armor becomes MORE significant when you understand what each chakra influences in your life. I never quite understood the traits/qualities/principles used to protect each body part in this lesson until this past Sunday.
Loins girt about with truth.
*This piece of armor protects the base and sacral chakras. A balanced Base Chakra gives you a sense of security, stability and a feeling of a balanced existence. Truth protects our sense of security, stability and of feeling balanced. The sacral chakra is your pro-creative powers, your ability to co-create children and it also represents your posterity. Truth protects our posterity. When we can recognize the lies we have believed about ourselves and others and instead accept the truth into our lives, we shed the false traditions of our fathers and protect our children from false and limiting beliefs.
Breastplate of righteousness.
 * This piece of armor protects the Solar Plexus (personal power) and the Heart chakras. When we protect our Solar Plexus chakra with righteousness, we do not exercise unrighteous dominion or control over other people. When we protect our Heart chakra with righteousness we increase our ability to have unconditional love for others. Doctrine & Covenants 121: 34-46 comes to mind and a re-reading of those scriptures with an understanding of these two chakras is really insightful.
Feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.
 *Carol Tuttle teaches in her Chakra 7 series that there is actually an 8th chakra that isn't directly on our physical body. It's purpose is to help us follow through or see our ideas to completion, manifest what we want, and to keep us grounded during meditation or other spiritual pursuits so we don't lose focus.
Preparation of gospel of peace
* This protects our foot chakra by helping us identify clearly the direction we should take in life so that can see our inspired ideas to completion, manifest what we want (a true Zion society fulfills not only needs but also wants), and help us develop the focus needed to meditate or pray.
Shield of faith.

 *Roman soldier armor does not have a piece of armor that covers the throat. And so it is with the Shield of Faith that we need to protect our Throat Chakra. The Throat Chakra is linked to our ears, and our ability to hear – both physically and intuitively. It is linked with understanding and being understood.
Our throat chakra is also a gateway or bridge between our psychological and spiritual selves. Our lower chakras represent our physical body (first chakra), emotional body (second chakra), mental body (third chakra), and relational self (heart chakra). Our third eye and crown chakra are linked to our intuitive, occult, and spiritual levels of being. Our throat chakra serves as the bridge between these two groups of chakras, just as our neck bridges our torso and head. When it is blocked we may feel as if we can not integrate spiritual experiences and insights into our daily awareness. For example, we may feel peaceful, calm, and wise within meditation or prayer, but not experience an increase in these feelings when we are off our meditation cushion or away from a house of worship. It is through exercising faith and sharing our testimony that we hope to be understood by those not of our similar religious beliefs. It is through faith that we gain understanding of all eternal truths. It is through exercising faith that we create spiritual experiences throughout our daily lives.
Helmet of salvation.
 *The helmet protects the Brow/Third Eye chakra and the Crown chakra. The Brow/Third Eye chakra is responsible for our intuition, or our ability to listen and heed the still, small, voice. The Crown chakra is our conduit to Heavenly Father. By protecting these two chakras with "Salvation" or through the Atonement of Christ, we can ensure that we are our lines of communication to and from the Godhead does not become infiltrated or corrupted by Satan's counterfeits.
Sword of God’s Spirit and His word through revelation. This does not directly "protect" our individual chakras, but by the Spirit and His word through revelation, we are better able to support each other. An enemy that is charging at my neighbor on the battlefield can be stopped by the sword I wield as I rely on the Spirit and God's word through revelation.
